My condolences, as feelings of pain and bitterness become unbearable. It is my desire to convey a comforting thought based on the Holy Scriptures

John 5:28 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out."

This passage speaks of the resurrection of our loved ones. It is not God's plan to see us suffer and die, so He extends the following invitation to us: "Come near to God and He will draw near to you" (James 4:8)

My deepest condolences

February 7, 2014

My deepest condolences. May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in your time of grief...

John 11:32-45

32And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.”33Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled;34and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.”35Jesus gave way to tears.36Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!”37But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

38Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it.39Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.”40Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?”41Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.42True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.”43And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!”44The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”

45Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;

From a member of the Motherless Daughters community, I wanted to share in not only the pain you are feeling, but the joy your mother has brought you. The only way grief can hurt so much, is because there is so very many wonderful things to lose.

Dear Mom, She is watching over you now, with more love then ever. She will keep you safe and remember, "everything WILL be OK." If there is anything I can do to make this better please let me know.

When tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see,If the sun should rise and find your eyesAll filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cryThe way you did today,While thinking of the many things,We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,As much as I love you,And each time that you think of me,I know you'll miss me too;

But when tomorrow starts without me,Please try to understand,That an angel came and called my name,And took me by the hand,

And said my place was ready,In heaven far above,And that I 'd have to leave behindAll those I dearly love.

When I walked through heaven's gates,I felt so much at home.When God looked down and smiled at me, From his great golden throne,

He said, "this is eternity, and all I've promised you.Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,For today will always last, And since each day is the same way,There's no longing for the past."

So when tomorrow starts without me,Don't think we're far apart,for every time you think of me,I'm right here, in your heart
